Give It To God

[Verse 1]
Can't lie like things are going so well
Or things are going swell
Lost a best friend twice
The second being my girl
First be sunny, for her man I give the world
But she ain't never seen what I became

Where you run to when your faith is on low
And people don't know
That loneliness is reaching through another plateau
They tell you that life will teach you
Suffering affects growth
If it hasn't, it will reach you, when it reaches let go-
And embrace it, so they say
But they ain't with you crying when you visiting his grave
They don't the depression that you regularly face
They don't know you insecure cause you standing on the stage
Think you got it together
I tell em that I ain't
I ain't one of them brothers tryn'a move like a fake
Or a snake at all
In need of One greater than I
To maybe change all I describe

[Chorus]
Where do you run to when the doors close, oh
And who do you call on when it all goes wrong
The Devil is telling me to feed my fears
Why don't you pack your bags and disappear
I'd rather give it to God

[Verse 2]
Listen, I could've been married now what happened to it?
Many ups and downs
Still, I wonder how I blew it
If I did live in regrets, God forbid
I thought we were next to take that step on the grid, we were
From having some meetings that were deceiving
To cancel the engagements with no valuable reason
Hope you would treat away
Asking me to give you space
But I can't, and so we meeting, in that meeting we engaged in some bad things
Lord help us
I ain't sign up for this, I know you didn't
See you well up, tears feeling your eyes when I tell you
I'm willing, tell her...
Josh told me that's a lie from the Devil
When I tell em
The words I need to hear clearly
That I survived, barely
Still bare a scar, see her in my mind nearly each day
In need of One greater than I
To maybe change all I describe

[Chorus]
Where do you run to when the doors close
And who do you call on when it all goes wrong
The Devil is telling me to feed my fears
Why don't you pack your bags and disappear
I'd rather give it to God

[Outro]
You said
We should come if we are weary and weak
I'm weary and heavy laden though these various deeds
That I'm carrying see, who's gon' give me relief?
No one knows you when you down, aunty Betty believed-
Big mama said I should hope and pray - when life is good
Or when life is just in disarray cause at times it could
Cause the pain and your shame you don't show it
Frustrated and jaded in one moment
It could all change
It's nothing like small pain
It's all pain
I'm just saying, I'm speaking facts-
Shawty was wearing heels and em flats
Meeting the family
Thinking that it's a wrap
But then that wall crumbled down
What are we now
Only the Lord knows
I'm caught in this crossroad
This here wasn't foretold
If only, right
If only my old man could console in lonely nights
If only I could leave right now and go be with Christ
Ah man, so many if only's, Jesus you know me
Praying without ceasing, I'm saying it cause they told me
Practice what you preaching, if not your preaching is phoney
Most my homies they know the deal
Pray for me still
Never conceal whatever hidden pray to reveal
Stay in His will
Prayed up aiming to kill
Anything that desire to stray away from the field
I was, one step away
But my God's a strong tower so I rest in a different kind of resting place
Any restless day, I can confess it
Oh what a blessing to talk to my God who's up in heaven
And he hears, that's right He hears
Every situation
If I'm bundled up in fear
Telling me never be scared, why
He's right here
Saying I am His and that I should draw near
